Hello my patrons! I finally threw together my VCF MW 18 (Chicago, 2023) video showing off everything I brought home from the trip. A whole bunch of it will require follow-up, but I think I give a good indication of how many cool freakin' awesome new projects exist out there! Thank you to everyone who gave me things to bring home and a big thanks for everyone who came up to say hi! 

In case anyone was wondering, I did not get sick from VCF even though almost everyone picked up COVID there. I suppose it's one benefit of have had it recently?! Hard to come up with positives when it comes to human malware. 

Thanks everyone for the support!

0069 There is so much "freakin' awesome!" in this video

I'm back from VCF Midwest 18 (2023) and I had the most amazing time. Even though I flew with just a small carry-on, I was able to bring back some awesome and amazing things and I want to show them off here. Thank you to everyone I met at VCF and to everyone who gave me things to bring home. -- Video Links Claim your selfies from VCFMW 18 here: https://mobat.ch/vcf18pics/ RetroModem: (Hayes) https://tempestfpga.com/ Pixel Art Display: Techdungeon.xyz PicoMem: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=94320 Apple II VGA card: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReTXGczq8Vk Dan II Controller github.com/profdc9/Apple2Card Adrian's Digital Basement Merch store: https://my-store-c82bd2-2.creator-spring.com/ Support the channel on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/adriansdigitalbasement Adrian's Digital Basement (Main Channel) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCE5dIscvDxrb7CD5uiJJOiw -- Tools Deoxit D5: https://amzn.to/2VvOKy1 http://store.caig.com/s.nl/it.A/id.1602/.f O-Ring Pick Set: (I use these to lift chips off boards) https://amzn.to/3a9x54J Elenco Electronics LP-560 Logic Probe: https://amzn.to/2VrT5lW Hakko FR301 Desoldering Iron: https://amzn.to/2ye6xC0 Rigol DS1054Z Four Channel Oscilloscope: https://www.rigolna.com/products/digital-oscilloscopes/1000z/ Head Worn Magnifying Goggles / Dual Lens Flip-In Head Magnifier: https://amzn.to/3adRbuy TL866II Plus Chip Tester and EPROM programmer: (The MiniPro) https://amzn.to/2wG4tlP https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33000308958.html TS100 Soldering Iron: https://amzn.to/2K36dJ5 https://www.ebay.com/itm/TS100-65W-MINI-Digital-OLED-Programmable-Soldering-Iron-Anti-static-Structure/113382669853 EEVBlog 121GW Multimeter: https://www.eevblog.com/product/121gw/ DSLogic Basic Logic Analyzer: https://amzn.to/2RDSDQw https://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-Logic-DSLogic-Basic-Analyzer-16Ch-100MHz-4Ch-400MHz-Xilinx-Spartan-6-FPGA/202543965672 Magnetic Screw Holder: https://amzn.to/3b8LOhG https://www.harborfreight.com/4-inch-magnetic-parts-tray-90566.html Universal ZIP sockets: (clones, used on my ZIF-64 test machine) https://www.ebay.com/itm/14-16-18-20-24-28-32-40-pin-IC-Test-Universal-ZIF-Socket-Fs/303206721971 RetroTink 2X Upconverter: (to hook up something like a C64 to HDMI) http://www.retrotink.com/ Plato (Clone) Side Cutters: (order five) https://www.ebay.com/itm/1-2-5-10PCS-Micro-Scissor-125mm-PLATO-170-Electronics-Cutter-Side-Cutting-Pliers/163458746184 Heat Sinks: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32537183709.html Little squeezy bottles: (available elsewhere too) https://amzn.to/3b8LOOI --- Links My GitHub repository: https://github.com/misterblack1?tab=repositories Commodore Computer Club / Vancouver, WA – Portland, OR – PDX Commodore Users Group https://www.commodorecomputerclub.com/ --- Instructional videos My video on damage-free chip removal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQVjwPsVFd8 --- Music Intro music and other tracks by: Nathan Divino @itsnathandivino

Those VDP boards take an FPGA breakout board, which emulate a 9918A (based on the F18A project, but on a Gowin FPGA rather than Xilinx), You get HDMI output, too!

Was awesome for the wife and I to finally meet you at VCF Midwest Adrian! We hope you enjoy the LED display. We have some other stuff we are going to send to you. We didn't want to overload you with stuff at VCF! We forgot to put our names or a note in the stuff we gave you at the show. To be honest we were just excited to get to talk to you! We also didn't want to take up too much of your time. We hope to see you again at future shows! Michael and Diana Tech Dungeon
